Recalbox 7.2.2 and 8BitDo M30
-
This gamepad has 3 global modes (Android, Windows, MacOS) If i connect it to RB 7.2.2 like "Android" it works in main dashboard and in Kodi menu but "dead" in game mode in all emulators.. "MacOs" mode doesnt recognize of this version recalbox. And mode "Windows" is OK only if you activate GPIO-controller in "WebFace" but very long time starting game. Previously on version 6.0 of recalbox is OK in everything mode.. Even if i install 6.0 version and upgrade it to 7.2.2 from menu (Not clean install 7.2.2) M30 still works in "Android" mode.. Something "new" broke old stabile..
Sorry for my english, i hope are everyone understand me.. -
Even if i install 6.0 version and upgrade it to 7.2.2 from menu
It is not possible to upgrade from version 6.0 to 7.2.2 via the menu, you are certainly not able to do that, some of your information is wrong.
Do a clean install, from scratch, of the latest official version, don't copy the configuration files or you will have a lot of bugs, watch this video and you will understand how to do it (turn on the subtitles):

@zing I dont think so .. This game pad works normaly in game after reconnect (hold start button is off goy and then on again) after that in this game is OK!!
Today i test it like second gamepad, first gamepad was "Wingman USB gamepad" soo, like second gamepad its OK from start, and dont need reconnect it ...
